Meet The Founder
Hey, I’m Tamera.
I’m the founder of TACE Training Academy, a nail educator, business owner and proud mum.
My journey in the nail industry began in 2016. What started as learning a skill and building a career grew into a passion for education, development and creating opportunities for the next generation of nail artists.
OUR MISSION
TACE exists to give young people the technical skills, confidence and business foundations they need to begin building a career in the nail industry.
We don't just want to teach students how to do nails. We want to help them develop into confident and professional nail artists.
OUR VALUES
EXCELLENCE — We believe in high standards, attention to detail and always striving to improve.
DEVELOPMENT — Great nail artists aren't created overnight. We believe in learning, practising, refining and growing.
CONFIDENCE — We want every student to leave TACE believing in what they're capable of.
PROFESSIONALISM — Technical skill is only part of being successful. How you work, communicate and represent yourself matters too.
AMBITION — We want our students to see what's possible beyond their first set of nails.
THE TACE SALON
The vision for TACE has always been bigger than training. I want to create a pathway where talented students can continue developing and, where the right opportunity exists, progress into the TACE salon team.
TRAIN → DEVELOP → QUALIFY → PROGRESS
Harlie is the first example of this vision becoming reality.
The FUTURE OF TACE
My vision is to build TACE into a recognised academy and salon where young people can learn, develop and build genuine careers within the nail industry.
I want to look around the TACE salon in years to come and see talented nail artists who started their journey with me.
